Greetings everyone, I recently got a new hard drive and replaced my old hard drive (which had Red Hat 7.2 installed on it) with it. I installed Red Hat 8.0 on the new drive and everything worked smoothly. However, now I need to get some important data off my old hard drive. I jumpered it up in my PC as a slave drive, but whenever I try booting my PC, for some reason, GRUB seems to try booting from it too - it gets confused with the partition mounts and then gets interminably stuck while trying to load the system logger.
How do I resolve this problem? Would it be possible for me to re-wire the old drive as a master again, and then boot up into RH7.2 and change /etc/fstab so there are no conflicts? I don't understand hardware very well - if I wire a drive up as a slave, surely it shouldn't try and start up during the boot process? Any suggestions and opinions welcome, as I am at a dead end!
